The document discusses the environmental and health concerns raised by residents living near the Los Lobos Landfill, particularly related to a composting operation that began in 1992. David and Cheryl Stewart, local residents, organized a community group called Citizens United for Responsible Environmentalism (CURE) to address foul odors and potential health risks associated with airborne fungus Aspergillus fumigatus. Despite numerous complaints and health surveys indicating increased respiratory issues among residents, government agencies concluded that the risk from Aspergillus was negligible for healthy individuals. The Stewarts' efforts to halt composting operations ultimately led them to file an administrative claim against the City, reflecting their ongoing concerns about public health and environmental safety.

How do landfills differ from open dumps?

Dumps allowed leachate to soak into the ground and contaminate the groundwater. Landfill liners prevent leachate from passing into groundwater. Modern landfills have leachate collection systems and the leachate is transported to treatment plants where clean water is produced and pollutants are removed.

What are dumps called now?

Modern landfills are well-engineered and managed facilities for the disposal of solid waste. Landfills are located, designed, operated and monitored to ensure compliance with federal regulations. They are also designed to protect the environment from contaminants, which may be present in the waste stream.
